We don’t often talk about S*** W*** on War Rocket Ajax, but we’re breaking one of our own rules this week to talk about it with Justin Aclin, the writer of two Dark Horse graphic novels in the series. We’ll talk about our histories with the series, how side-stories can be really good, bright colors, Justin’s work on the video game tie-in Akaneiro, and much more! Plus, a quick Love Haters segment!

The Eisner nominations are out and we’re having a roundtable this week to talk about ’em! We invited ComicsAlliance pals David Wolkin and Dylan Todd to talk about what was missing, what people have been saying is missing, what’s surprising, the shifting nature of digital comics, and a ton more! Also, we divide ourselves into two camps in regards to Chris Ware, though we all find Building Stories just a little big daunting.

Our guests this week are the creative team behind Monkeybrain’s new title Knuckleheads, Brian Winkeler and Robert Wilson IV! We’ll talk them about how they avoid having a completely unlikable main character, how the comic has evolved over the years, how they met, what it takes to be a music artist and Brain’s work on Bastard Road! Plus, another edition of the War Rocket Ajax love haters!

Kickstarter phenomenon and God Hates Astronauts creator Ryan Browne is our guest this week! We talk about the secret to a great Kickstarter, what it’s like to deal with literally two tons of books, the improvisational origin of Blast Furnace, Indiana Jones, owls, and much more! Plus, yet another edition of the War Rocket Ajax Love Haters!

It’s Wrestlemania time! And this year, we’re welcoming the writer of Glory and Morbius, Joe Keatinge, and WithLeather.com’s Danielle Matheson to run down the card with us! Also discussed: How cold it’s going to be, which matches warrant nacho breaks, what merch is going to be available, and much more!
